I bought a batch of Danish reprints of Marvel comics today. All in black and white but still some good stuff. FF 42 - 67 + annuals, Dr. Strange 1 - 5 Marvel Premiere 12 - 14 Alpha Flight 1 - 10 All for 13$ Pretty good deal if you ask me

Well, I can't argue with the price. I take it the FF issues are Lee/Kirby reprints? If so, you made out pretty well. Those issues cover probably the best period in their run, including Coming Of Galactus. I actually haven't read early Alpha Flight, so can't speak for the quality. But this was Byrne back before his ego ran away with him, so may not be too bad.

It is the reprints of the Lee/Kirby run, Steve. Looking forward to reading those issue since people often refer to them as legendary. The books itself are in a bit of a rough shape, but readable - and that is the point The Alpha Flight stories are okay. I've finished the first book (issue 1 - 6) and while it doesn't really blow me away like much of Byrne's 80ies stuff does, it's still radable. I'm a bit dissapointed though since I, unrealistically, probably expected it to compare to Byrne's FF in quality.

GREAT deal man ... I wish my shop had a quarter bin. Hell, even a dollar bin. He just packs some comics into a "grab bag" and sells then for $1. (which would be cool, if they weren't just recent books that were over ordered.... in other words, books I have or do not want.

It's been a long time since I had the extra cash and/or time to go quarter bin shopping... maybe someday soon.

Man, I wish my shop had a quarter bin. He does have a few dollar bins, but that's mostly cause he ran out of room for some inventory. I got a few things out of them, but certainly nothing that great... and most of the stuff I'm not remotely interested in anyway.
